to be honest, I bought this album just for the song "invisible man". as that song came to an end, I was going to turn off my cd player and let it be. but then, part of me was like, 'give these guys a chance'

I'm glad I did. as the songs played, I listened. the lyrics were rang true, the music beautiful. 98 degrees does not need to be compared to BSB and Nsync. they have more of an r&b flavor to their music.

favorites of mine include the mentioned "invisible man", "was it something I didn't say", "take my breath away", and "heaven's missing an angel". these songs remind me of something that boyz to men could have done. it comes as no surprise then that they are both on the same label, motown.

anyone looking for a very listenable r&b album will be very happy with this purchase. the songs will find a place in your heart. I know they did in mine.

I have been hooked on the music of the four talented guys of 98 Degrees since this CD came out a few years ago. They are set a breed apart from the "boy bands" and I think this is obvious after listening to this album. On their debut CD they use their amazing vocals to showcase their talent in both the areas of R&B and pop. On tracks such as "Was it Something I Didn't Say," "I Wasn't Over You," and "Invisible Man" their true R&B flavor comes through sounding very similar to BoyzIIMen. On more upbeat tracks like "Come and Get It" and "Dreaming" they show definite pop promise. Overall, this album is a beautiful blend of the two genres of music and I would reccomend it to anybody looking for a good album to relax to. It definitely gives them credibility and will surprise all of the "boy band" haters.

Well there's very few white boyz that can croon R&B, but these guys can. Not a boyband by any stretch of the word they truly know how to lay down a soulful beat and put great harmonies to it. If you like BoyzIIMen or All-4-One or Jodeci you'll definately like 98Degrees. Go pick up this and a few of their other current cds. And like the rest of us wait for their next album to drop.

I have not been able to let go of their CD's since I got them. First of all, to me and maybe some others out there, without a doubt, the best song of 98' Degrees is "The Invisible Man". Ever since I heard the song and then saw the video, I started to cry like I never cried before in my life. That song literally touches your heart and soul. I know how that feels when someone that you love doesn't see you, and only sees you as the invisible man. Man is that feeling so heartrenching. I hope these guys continue to make hits like that. I am a Fan of your FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a good debut album by Nick & the rest of 98 Degrees. Although there could have been more Dance-Pop songs like "I Wanna Love You, " I like it. "Dreaming" is a song that never fails to make me feel emotional. Nick sings with much sincerity throughout this album and I hope he gets higher quality songs for his next solo album. The only songs I don't much like are "Invisible Man", it's decent, but shouldn't have been a single. "Hand In Hand" would have been better off this album. It just doesn't fit with the other songs. The best songs come in the second half of the album. I believe the reason why 98 Degrees wasn't more successful at the time was because they are an Urban contemporary band similar to Silk, Boyz II Men, etc. This is not really a pop band, they are a Urban male vocal group. Overall, a satisfactory effort with good vocals, lyrics and production.
